Less than half of Americans can afford an unexpected medical bill of a thousand dollars, which, if my experience in Florida is anything to go by, probably wouldn’t cover much more than a couple of Nurofen and a Band-Aid. I was really surprised by how laid bare Kay let himself get here, and I genuinely wasn’t expecting how dark and painfully honest this was going to be.

With his stethoscope now hung up, Adam shares more suture-splitting anecdotes from both on and off the wards. But there is darkness here, too, and he handles it so well I had to lay the book aside until my heart was ready for the rest.

Undoctored follows on from This is Going to Hurt, leaving audiences laughing and crying with Adam’s unique tales of life on and off the wards. Hilarious and heartbreaking, horrifying and humbling, Undoctored is the astonishing portrait of a life by one of Britain’s best-loved storytellers. And there are lots of people who say, “Oh, you must stay in the job no matter what”, and that’s unhealthy and unhelpful.

Nie czytałam też poprzedniego hitu autora „Będzie bolało”, a mam wrażenie, że czytało ją ogrom ludzi. We have some really frank discussions on sexuality, relationships, abuse, mental health, academic pressure, and societal and familial expectations. Plus, every few chapters or so, there was a short flashback to his time as a doctor or medical student. Following the huge success of his memoir This is Going to Hurt, and the spin-off smash-hit stage show and BBC TV series, Adam brings his new show Undoctored – This is Going to Hurt….I also find it admirable that the author tries to better the situations for health care workers in the UK, who are straining under an impossible load.

It has been read by millions, translated into 37 languages, and adapted into a major BBC television series.
